[External] : Re: Draft JEP, "JDK packaging guidelines"

[Alexey Semenyuk]

Michael,

The JEP doesn't have a goal to define protocol of picking JDK from many 
installed. It provides recommendations to avoid conflicts between them. 
It covers installation directory names, package names, and other 
elements of packages that can be in conflict.
